 :wtf: That was pisspoor.  I thought it must have been a pump race until I saw them actually pedaling.  I cant believe how slow they were, and that track looked like it was meant to be ridden hard and fast

Don't feel too bad for those guys,some of the US old schoolers ride their 20" princess the same way. :uglystupid2:

I damn near cracked my Streak hitting a jump too slow,landed short but I didn't wreck at least though I did break the seat guts when my bum hit it. :LolLolLolLol:

I know that some of the bikes we race on are irreplaceable, and the parts are often rare, but a race is a race, not a  concourse event!! If the bike is truly in a condition that racing it will damage it then dont race it, theres plenty of bikes out there in survivor condition that are just begging to be used.

Heres a phone quality clip of one of our motos from Daggers on Sunday, no princesses here :daumenhoch:
